MalaMala is famous for the extremely high standard of its game rangers, all of whom are university graduates with degrees in the natural sciences. All game rangers and trackers are carefully chosen for their knowledge and experience of the bush, and receive extensive training to ensure that your encounters with the African wilderness are exciting, informative, and safe. There are three lodges on the MalaMala Private Game Reserve: Rattray's Camp, Sable Camp, and Main Camp
Facilities within the regal main building incorporate a viewing deck, an air-conditioned library, an attractive bar showcasing the history of the area, and an adjoining wine cellar stocked with a wide range of South Africa's best wines. Breakfast and lunch are served in the air-conditioned dining room or on the adjoining deck. Dinners can be taken in the dining room, in the privacy of one's Khaya, or in the traditional reed boma under a magnificent jackalberry tree. Guests over the age of 16 are welcome at Rattray's Camp.
The fully air-conditioned common area has a colonial feel with modern comforts. A library with satellite television and internet access provide communications with the outside world, while the elevated deck surrounding camp provides unimpeded views of the Sand River and surrounding floodplain. Sable Camp also has its own separate bar, dining area, and boma. Guests over the age of 16 are welcome at Sable Camp.
The ochre colored buildings of MalaMala Main Camp are clustered amid shady trees and manicured lawns overlooking the Sand River. Main Camp accommodates a maximum of 36 guests in standard rooms, suites, family rooms, and a disabled suite, all being traditional bungalows under a thatch roof. Each has one bathroom, climate control, hairdryers, telephone, mini-bar and mini-safe, etc.
The common area is dominated by the spacious and lavishly decorated Buffalo Lounge, leading out onto an expansive wooden viewing deck overlooking the Sand River. The camp also features a bar, a boma for outdoor dining, and the Monkey Club (a video den/library ideal for children). Massage treatments can be arranged at any of Mala Mala's three lodges upon request.
